| Flyin' Miata projects in the shop |
|
|
 |  |
 | Remember Mike's poor car? Well, it's being reborn in another shell. First he has to take all the bits off the old one. entry 1002 |
 |  |
 | Another Mazdaspeed in the shop - this one's here for a full intake kit installation. 20 horsepower coming up! entry 1001 |
 |  |
 | This Mazdaspeed is in the shop for a 5-speed and a 3.90 rear end to go with the existing FM II conversion. entry 1000 |
 |  |
 | Matt Simpson sent us a picture of him having fun with his FM II on some little racetrack in Europe called the Nürburgring. entry 999 |
 |  |
 | Bill was down in SoCal at MX5 Miatafest this weekend for.. um.. work. :D As you can see from the smile the event was great! Shouts out to Mazda R&D West, Socalm, Racing Beat, Goodwin Racing, 949 Racing, all of our customers, and everyone else who attended for an excellent event! entry 998 |
 |  |
 | A recent customer car. FM Stage 2 suspension, 17x9 wheels with 255-series tires, roll bar - and of course, one of our superchargers with a reflashed ECU. entry 997 |
 |  |
 | Oops.. One Quaife, coming right up! entry 996 |
 |  |
 | Check these out- 2000cc Injector Dynamics fuel injectors. They're on their way to fuel a customer's ~600 rwhp E85 Hydra turbo beast! Yowzers! entry 995 |
 |  |
 | The NC is now up and running with the new engine! We've missed this car over the last couple of weeks. Welcome back, Nancy. entry 994 |
 |  |
 | Brandon and Mike head to a track day at High Plains Raceway. Is this the coolest tow rig ever? entry 993 |
 |  |
 | V8 Miatas make excellent touring cars! Unless of course it's June in British Columbia... :D entry 992 |
 |  |
 | Miata archaeology! We found this in the engine bay of a Mazdaspeed, and we think it's how Mazda installs spring clamps. Slide it over the hose, pull the red clamp off and BANG! it's tight.
We know how strong these Mazdaspeed intercooler pipe clamps are. Everyone's treating this like a grenade. entry 991 |
 |  |
 | Steven Searle was autocrossing with his very fast Miata over the weekend. He has an FM stroker engine with an FM II and 3071 turbo, stuck to the ground with AFCOs. He missed the fastest time of the day by only 0.046 seconds and came home with a massive smile on his face. entry 990 |
 |  |
 | We've received a ton (literally) of our new FM V-Maxx suspension kits, and they're starting to ship out today. entry 989 |
 |  |
 | Nancy, our 2006, is getting a new engine with forged internals. There's nothing wrong with the old one, but this will let us push the limits on this car. entry 988 |
 |  |
 | Russ spins some wrenches on a Mazdaspeed. You don't see a lot of titanium grey hardtops! entry 987 |
 |  |
 | ...and that's it for Mike's car. Someone pulled in front of him without looking. What a shame. entry 986 |
 |  |
 | Yet another highly experienced Miata joins us at FM! This is Mike's new car, and it's rapidly becoming much more competent under his care. No word on when it will have matching body parts, though. entry 985 |
 |  |
 | Bill's little 1992 is a lot prettier on the outside. Yuk. entry 984 |
 |  |
 | It turns out Bill has a hole in his life that is shaped exactly like a tired 1.6 yellow Miata. We had no idea until this showed up. entry 983 |
